LOOK OUT FOR THE ENGINE.
fracklaying Renewed with Great
Energy Public Expectation
Strained to the
Utmost.

The locomotive is coming nigh. Almost
hourly people come from the end OF the
track and report that the good work goes
bravely on The town is full of expecta-
ton and is prepared to hear at any mo-
Inent that the great work is done. Mr., f.
NJ Shaw who was with the tracklayers
yesterday found them advancing steadily
across what was Black Horse lake. The
ground was muddy and the work was
much retarded, but when he left there in
the afternoon the track1ayers were half
way across and expected to make rapid
pr6gress as soon as they were over, Mr..
Seims and Mr.. Fogarty arrived in town to-
day from Armington's sheep ranch, and at
once proceeded to the front with the ex-
pectation that they would find the track
layers very near Mr.. Seims said as they
approached the town on this side of the
river, they could see the railroad cars.
Tomorrow the rush to see the locomotive
will be still greater and Manery 'ssWagons
are likely to be we'll filled at each trip.
ONLY EIGHT MILES AWAY.
At neon to-day when the TRIBUNE rep
resentative left the track it was only eight
miles from town and the traeklayers with
the veteran railroad builder Donald Grant
in command were making rapid strides,
which ensure that the great work will be
finished on Saturday. All the conditions
are favorable for the advancement OF the
steel track. The warm weather has made
the grade firm; tue workmen are full OF
ENERGY and are senthused' at the certainty
that the track will be at Great Falls on
time, and that the great task will then De
done. As the Sun river bridge is not
quite ready for the track, 1t IS probable
that the railroad builders will have here a
few DAYS of welI-earned rest ere they adj
advance on Helena.
MORE GOOD NEWS.
While the track is thus nearing town,
Loberg & Davies, the bridge contractors,
have arrived with the good news that they
have come with two fiat boats heavily Ia
den with cement. tools and general sup
plies to begin work on the bridge piers
which they are certain they will have
ready in Novemb Der in accordance with
the contract. The boats, which came cas-
ily over the Half Breed rapids but were
detained by other distractions, are now up
the river at Eastmon's where the contrac-
tors have had men quarrying stone for the
piers. Mr. Loberg says that the wagon
bridge will cross the Missouri on line
with First-avenue North. 1t will have
eight piers and the spans will be about
12s feet. The bridge will be about 1900
feet long The piers will be 36 feet by 10
feet and 12 feet high. The contractors
have had much experience in Chicago and
Helena in large undertakings and are de-
| te-mined to push the work vigorously SO
| that the piers may be ready for the iron
work, which will come from San Francisco
| and be forwarded here over the Montana
| Central.

The Red.Headed Giri.

A red-headed girl was about to get
aboard the bucket to go down the
shaft in a certain Breeze Hill mine
the other day in Leadville, when the
superintendent cried out: "Take her
off! No red-headed girl can go down
this shaft" Upon being asked his
reason for thus boyco,ting red headed
girls, the superintendent said he had
peculiar superstition that red-headed
girls and white horses were omens OF
iIl-luck. He remembered one time
in Nevada when a red-headed girl
went down shaft and when the
miners saw her they thought the work
ings were on fire. In the stampede
that followed Is men were killed and
a number wounded. The girl es.
capped.

Silver Moving Back to its Place.

Despite the fight made in England
against silver, aided by a clique of
powerful interested friends in this
country, silver is asserting itself, and
is moving toward the place it formerly
occupied in the monetary economy of
the world. The London Graphic,
which has long been fighting down
silver, now says:
The demand for silver is growing,
and there are indications of late that
there is not such plethora of that
metal as was supposed.
Finally, it concludes that the testi.
mony taken by the British Gold and
Silver Commission is daily adding to
"tbe sentiment rapidly growing in
England that the reign of gold mono
metalism in that country must soon
come to a close"

Prices range from $35 upward suit,
and the goods are much superior in
quality and make than any that can
be ordered from the outside.

Two Sides Of q Story.

ivari, Thursday night, say they do not
propose to suffer alone for the pro-
ceedings of the evening, and that
"some members of the Professors

nation next Monday"
George Taylor called at the TIMES
Office to-day, to say that there we're
only two of the Is members of the
band who were anywhere near the
charivari. He was one of them, and
only went to Mr.. Banield's to ascer-
tain if there had been a wedding, in
order to turn out the band. He took
no more part in the charivari than the
TIMES reporter, who also went there
to inquire what in thunderation all the

FOR SALT LAKE CITY.
What Some Citizens Of HALEY Propose
Doing to Help Make Us Known.

Fl. Stevenson, who in his quiet way
is doing what he eau to bring this re-
gion iuto prominence, having offered
to supply loo-pound samples of galena
ore f'om Our leading mines, if some
one would see to it that they were got
to Salt Lake City and placed in a
cabinet there in some public place
where all visitors to that city could see
them, J. NJ. Burkett has kindly agreed
to see to their transportation.
The preliminary arrangements be-
ing thus made, Mr.. Stevenson will,
from time to time, as he can obtain
them, have the chunks brought to
town at his own expense; and when a
number sufficient to make creditable
showing shall have been brought in,
the arrangements to have them for
warded and placed on exhibition in
Salt Lake City will be concluded.
This is move that is likely to do
us much good. If, when the expected
torrent of visitors begins to rush into
Salt Lake City, cabinet of bright,
shining galena specimens is on exhi-
bition either at the Chamber of Com
merce or the leading hotel, the stran-
gers will be led to believe that all the
talk about the wealth OF our mines is
not so much idle rumor, but a posi-
tive reality; and many may thereby
be led to come up to look after in
vestments who might otherwise never
hear of US.

BOISE CITY, Sept. 9, 1887.
To THE EprroR OF THE TINES
The base ball club of Bellevue in.
vited the Boise City club to play a
series of games at Bellevue on or
about August 20, 1887. The invita-
ton was accepted by the Boise club,
and practise was had. A few days
before the Goth, however, we we're
notified that, on account of the rail.
road company's not consenting to give
reduced rates, they could not keep to
their invitation. You can imagine
with what disgust this piece of news
was received here.
Now, the fare from the towns on
Wood River to this point, up to and
including September 18th, is, be-
lieve, only IS, and if the boys of Wood
River want to play ball, now is the
time to get cheap rates and have a
good time. If a nine should come,
which we sincerely hope, endeavors
will be made to play for a purse at
each game.
Trusting you will give this commu-
nication place in your columns, 1
remain, sir,
Yours truly,
ROBERT FALLoN,
For members of b. G. B. B. Club.
Mr.. Fallon and his fellow mem
bers will please bear in mind the fact
that the invitation did not come from
either "Wood River or Haley" We
do things differently here. 1t is
doubtless too late for the Haley boys
to accept the kind invitation of the
Boise Club. We therefore fear that
the desired match game will not be
played.-ED. TIMES.
